Even though that change may be interesting on its own, it isn't a proper
solution here. 

Raw values cannot be replaced. The only possible handling is "prepend"
since Org cannot possibly know what the results are. For example, with
the following src block

  #+begin_src org
  Pargraph 1

  Paragaph 2
  #+end_src

Org cannot know if a raw "Parapraph 2" belongs the the results or is
a paragraph following them.

Since "raw" format is special, the most surprising thing here is that
Org src blocks use it as a default.

Anyway, I don't think there is anything to fix (except maybe the
documentation). The OP is requesting an impossible combination of
parameters.

Regards,
